Hi Shaun--

Sorry to say that this is pretty much a baseball-free zone.

During the season you may find a Yankees game broadcast on ESPN Asia. Often the game is tape delayed. They use the YES feeds, and YES broadcasters.

Last year, later in the season, there was an occasional Dodgers game on, but it was sporadic, and not really something you could plan on. It was frustrating during the pennant races to look at ESPN Asia's schedule and see a day filled with random motor sports events and futbol talk.

You may want to look into the MLB.com package, or get a Slingbox installed in the US.

As for shops, I haven't had much luck here either. At least with internet shopping, you can also use MLB.com or another US vendor and have it shipped here directly, or using VPost (which might save a few bucks in shipping charges).

Best wishes. . .

Go Brewers Go!
